What I mean is if you really need to haste yourself you can take off Flail of Ages for something else. I never even put pips into flails when I use FoA. Compared to the high thac0 enchantment it has plus a Kensai's naturally high Thac0, the only reason you'd ever want to put any pips in it would be for the extra attacks. Which again, you can just have greater whirlwind and then you don't even need haste.
Now...as far as katanas being rare and valuable...I once heard a rumor that you could buy a seemingly-well-made katana from a pawn shop in El Paso for only $250. Sounds like a great deal.
I just started playing this game again, and upon looking up info about this really poorly explained or documented game, I found this thread, and had to make an account just to tell you that I UNDERSTOOD THIS REFERENCE, and your charge of holding on to this joke until death takes you is now released.

Scimitars/ninjato: Solid choice
Long swords: Very solid choice (Nice equipped protections)
